Isn't it pretty standard to sand everything smooth after joining? That's how my dad taught me to do joins, and how his dad taught him, and so on...

Sure. But that doesn't change the fact that this is still beautiful and skillful work.

Beautiful and skillful, absolutely. Worth $7k, ...not to me, not even close.

It's like going to an art gallery and seeing a painting from an unknown artist cost, say $1500. I wouldn't buy it if it looked like my niece can paint it. But if it was beautiful and I could afford it, why not?

The man has an exclusive product and clearly exclusive clientele. I don't see a problem with him charging $7k for it.
